Man United target Mauricio Pochettino currently favourite to take another Premier League job

Former Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is the bookies’ favourite to become the next Manchester City manager.

Ladbrokes have been in touch to reveal that they’re currently offering odds of just 5/2 on Pochettino replacing Pep Guardiola at the Etihad Stadium, despite him being so often linked with Manchester United.

Goal recently reported that the Red Devils are content with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer following some recent improvement, though the report mentioned Pochettino remains on their radar in case things don’t work out under the Norwegian tactician.

It remains to be seen when football will even resume at the moment due to the coronavirus crisis gripping the globe, but it doesn’t seem beyond the realms of possibility that Pochettino could end up at City.

The setup at the Etihad would surely appeal to the Argentine, who did fine work at Spurs and who will surely have the pick of Europe’s elite coming after him in the near future.
